A Perfect Bloody Mary; Twenty Years In The Making!

Big Daddy's bloody Mary mix, James Miller has been a bartender for over 20 years.

James has found that getting a great tasting bloody Mary on a consistent basis is nearly impossible. This led James to formulate his own recipe, which he made at each establishment he worked.

Currently, as a bar owner himself, James makes this mix by the gallons to satisfy the demand of his customers. They come religiously every Sunday (and every other day of the week) for the "Sunday, bloody Sunday" drink special. James takes pride in his great tasting mix and, he hopes you'll agree, this is the best bloody Mary mix you will ever purchase.

Directions to get a perfect Bloody Mary:Mix one part of your favorite premium vodka to three parts of Big Daddy's Original Recipe Bloody Mary mix. Garnish as desired (celery, lime, olive, pepperoncini) a salted rim adds a touch of flavor and class........ENJOY

Bloody Mary Mix can be enjoyed with or without alcohol and is perfect as a base for gazpacho or as an ingredient in other recipes. Here is a recipe for Bloody Mary Salmon:

In a shallow pan heat olive oil . Saute celery until it starts to sweat. Push the celery aside and add the salmon to the pan.

Add the Bloody Mary Mix and bring to a gentle simmer. Add in the vodka at this time.

Cover with a tight fitting lid and let salmon poach in the liquid for about 10-12 minutes, until it is just cooked through.

To serve plate the salmon and spoon the sauteed celery and sauce over the salmon.
